Saturday's Project

Saturdays always bring me into a different space. I'm never sure if my husband is going to want to just hang out and read or work on some project. If he reads, I like to have some handwork so I can sit with him. If he finds a project to do, then I work on the sewing machine or other things.

This Saturday was a day that he helped my son tear up his deck, so I found a sewing project to do. I remembered some quilt squares that were given to me by a friend. She was learning embroidery on her then new machine and was going to make a quilt. I guess she decided she wasn't a quilter, so she gave me the embroidered squares.

I trimmed all the squares to the size I decided upon and with the other fabrics she gave me I took the green and made the sashings.

It was all a very easy put together. One of the easiest quilts I've ever done.

Now it's just the borders. I will go out and buy a flowered fabric for the outside border.
